TUC's Paul Nowak at the Together Alliance march, "I'm going to say three things" "First. Look around us in our wonderful diversity. Women and men, black and white, young and old. Those born in this country, those who came here to live and work" "United against the far right, this is what solidarity looks like" "86 years ago my grandad came to this country from Poland. Fled from fascism, authoritarianism and terror. He came to Britain to play his part in the fight against fascism" "Then he fell in love, got a job, raised his family and lived the rest of his life in this country" "I am proud of the contribution my migrant family made to this country. Proud to be the grandson of migrants. And proud of the millions of families like them up and down this country" "They've made more of a contribution to this country than a politician to hire like Nigel Farage, than the tax avoider like Richard Tice, than a coked up street thug like Tommy Robinson has ever done" "Second. We're here because we reject the politics of hate, but we also have to reject the politics of the status quo, because for far too many people in this country, politics isn't delivering even the basics" "Too many people still in jobs they can't build a life around. Homes they can't afford. Worried about turning on the heating. About paying the shopping bill. About affording a holiday" "The government and politicians of every stripe need to deliver the change the British public voted for in July 2024" "That means delivering the Employment Rights Act in full. Invest in public services. And showing with every decision they're on the sides of working class people and their communities" "And they can start by asking those with the broadest shoulders to pay a fairer share" "If billionaires can sent their mates into space they can pay more tax" "If bankers can award themselves record bonuses - £25 billion last year - they can pay more tax" "If an off=shore crypto millionaire can pay Nigel Farage £12 million in dodgy donations, he can pay more tax in this country" "Final point. We need our politicians to deliver political change but we can't afford to sit round and wait for that change to come" "The right to vote, universal education, the welfare state, the NHS, employment rights, equality legislation, the national minimum wage" "None of it was handed down. It didn't fall from the sky. None of it happened because someone wrote a policy report in a think tank" "It happened because people came together and the Labour and trade union movement fought for it and we won it" "Let's bring hope to communities and workplaces up and down this country" "Together we can do it" "Unity wins. Unity works. Unity is strength"

Sonny Green speaking at the Together Alliance march, "I love you loads, love is always the answer" "Here's what England means to me" "When its sunny, its too hot" "When it's cold, the weather's rubbish, nothing is quite good enough, and that's exactly how we like it" "England to me is a cup of tea, being asked how many sugars and saying none, I'm sweet enough" "It's sarcasm bent on bravado, the way we talk without saying much at all" "It's not, where are you from" "Its, who do you support" "It's, how's your mum, is she alright?" "England to me is a Tesco meal deal, don't forget your clubcard" "It's two pints of lager and a packet of crisps" "Yeah yeah you are really fit but my gosh, don't you just know it" "It's Thursday, be a little Friday, a little Friday being half a day" "It's going on a long journey and goiing, are we there yet" "England to me is Turkish barbers with the sharpest trim" "It's the shopkeeper letting you off 20p when you're skint" "It's English neighbours saying, happy Eid mate" "And Muslim mum's saying, merry Christmas love" "It's the (something) down the high street and everyone around the same table sharing food" "It's Scousers singing, Mo Salah Salah" "And Nooners reminiscing about Ian Right Right Right" "It's Bob Marley and Reggae" "Oasis on the karaoke" "It's Sweet Caroline on the terraces" "Three lions every summer" "And if you think you've seen flags now, wait until the world cup's on. Then you'll know about flags my son" "Don't believe the news, don't believe some political parties" "Here's what I believe" "Let's have a proper party. All are welcome. Leave your politics at the door. Bring your best karaoke voice" "We'll play Twister, and Monopoly, until it gets late" "Cause here's what England means to me" "It's about loving each other no matter what colour you are, where you come from, or who your God is" "Because when I look in your eyes I see mine reflecting back" "And I'll never forget that" "And I'll never forget what my nan told me, that if you ain't got nothing nice to say, don't say nothing at all" "Cause this is England" "Whether your staple diet i mashed potato or rice" "Yeah its nice to be important" "But it's more important to be nice" "I love you guys, keep fighting the good fight yeah" "That's the real England, don't believe the fascists mate" "They've got nothing on us" "Let's go baby"

Half a million in London today. The largest anti-far right march in British history. 56 billionaires own more than 27 million of us. They built the crisis, bankrolled the hate, and bought Reform UK. The streets belong to us - not to Farage, not to Musk, not to their money. x.com/PSCupdates/sta…

Just updating last year's revision pack with papers... I put in two potential papers, just things that haven't come up in a while. I'm not telling students IT WILL BE THIS, but, also, what's the point in them writing an essay on last year's paper? Anyway... last year's were...

Fascists of UKIP completely surrounded in Liverpool. Great to see a huge turn out to stop them in their tracks. No to Islamophobia - yes to unity! Next stop London #Together next Saturday 28 March.

Friends, if you're familiar with my work, you know what I try to do every day in these spaces. My doctors tell me I'm on the edge of mental and physical exhaustion, so I have to rest. I have my son, my faith, my poetry, and my belief in you. I'll return soon. xo

I originated The Liza Tarbuck Show for @BBCRadio2 in 2012. It was lots of sitting on the church steps trying to catch all the thousands of drops of Liza’s brilliance and fashion of a show out of them. But it didn’t need features & frippery… she alone is everything 😌

Two terrible things have happened today. First I find Co-op have stopped stocking my favourite wine & now I find out Liza Tarbuck has left her radio show for good. Devastating. It was the best two hours of radio ever. A black cloud is over me.
